HASP-LOCK.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented May 28,1912.

Application filed March 22, 1912. Serial No. 685,463.

To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, l\/ [ARIAN MILEWSKI, a citizen of Russia, residing at Carmel, in the county of Putnam and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Hasp-Locks, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.

This invention relates to locks, and more particularly to a hasp especially designed for a car door.

The primary object of my invention is to furnish a door with an adjustable hasp that can be easily and quickly locked in a closed position and then sealed to prevent the lock from being tampered with and the door surreptitiously opened.

Another object of this invention is to provide a lock hasp that can be adjusted whereby it can be correctly positioned in connection with a door for locking purposes.

A further object of this invention is to accomplish the above results by a mechanical construction that is durable, inexpensive to manufacture, and highly efficient for the purposes for which it is intended.

With the above and other objects in view, the invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter specifically described and then claimed.

Reference will now be had to the drawing, wherein Figure 1 is a front elevation of the lock hasp, Fig. 2 is a plan of the same, Fig. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of the hasp, Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a portion of a keeper, and Fig. 5 is an elevation of a sealing pin.

The reference numeral 1 denotes a door which in a closed position, is in proximity to a door frame 2. Secured to the door frame 2 by bolts 3 and nuts 4 is a keeper plate 5. The keeper plate 5 is provided with a keeper 8 having a latch opening 9 and a vertical sealing pin opening 10.

Secured to the door 1 by screws 11 or other fastening means is a hasp plate 12 having one end thereof provided with a longitudinal apertured lug 13. Slidably mounted against the hasp plate 12 is a hasp 14 having an off-set portion 15, said hasp and the off-set portion thereof being provided with longitudinal slots 16. Extending through the slots 16 are bolts 17 pro vided with nuts 18, said bolts retaining the hasp in engagement with the hasp plate 12. The off-set portion 15 of the hasp plate has an apertured extension 19 to which is pivotally connected by a rivet 20 a hook 21, said hook engaging in the apertured lug 13, whereby the hasp can be correctly positioned relatively to the hasp plate 12. The opposite end of the hasp 14 has a knuckle 22 and pivotally connected to said barrel by a pin 23 are the knuckles 24 ofa movable hasp member 25. The hasp member 25 has a slot 26 to provide clearance for the keeper 8 and secured to saidhasp member is a key actuated lock 27 having a latch or bolt 28 adapted to be placed in the-opening 9 of said keeper.

The keeper plate 5 has an eye or staple 29 to which is loosely connected by a chain 30 or other fastening means a sealing pin 31. The sealing pin 31 has an apertured head or eye 32 provided with an offset opening 33 to accommodate a sealing wire 34. The opening 10 that receives the pin 31 has the wall thereof grooved, as at 35 to provide clearance for the sealing wire 34, and after the wire has been passed through the groove 35 and the off-set opening 33, the ends of the wire are connected by a soft metal seal 36. The sea-l 36 prevents the sealing pin 31 from being elevated and the hasp member 25 released, even though the lock 27 should be surreptitiously opened.

From the foregoing it will be observed that the hasp member 25 can be correctly positioned by adjusting the lug 21, whereby it will fit over the keeper 8 and that besides resorting to the lock 27, the sealing wire 34 is employed for positively retaining the hasp member in engagement with the keeper.

What I claim is 1. The combination with a door and a door frame, of a keeper plate carried by said door frame, a keeper carried by said plate and having a bolt opening and a sealing pin opening formed therein, a hasp member adjustably supported by said door and adapted to beswung into engagement with said keeper plate, a lock carried by saidhasp member and having a boltadaptedto engage in the bolt opening of saidkeeper, a sealing pin loosely connected to said keeper plate and adapted to be placed in the sealing pin opening of said plate, and means for retaining said sealing pin in engagement with said keeper.

2. The combination with a door and a door frame, of a hasp plate carried by said door, a hasp adjustably mounted against said plate, an apertured lug carried by said hasp p1ate,a hook connected to said hasp and engaging in said lug, a hasp member carried by said hasp, a keeper carried by said door frame and adapted to extend through said hasp member, and means carried by said hasp member for locking said member relatively to said keeper.

3. The combination with a door and a door frame, of a hasp plate carried by said door, a hasp acljustably mounted against said plate, an apert-ured lug carried by said hasp plate, a hook connected to said hasp and engaging in said lug, a hasp member carried by said hasp, a keeper carried by said door frame and adapted to extend through said hasp member, means carried by said hasp member for locking said member relatively to said keeper, and additional means including a sealing pin cooperating with the first mentioned means in retaining said hasp member in engagement with said keeper.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
